I'm cursed with empathy. I'm also by nature way too opinionated.

A man must make of his life a ladder that he never ceases to climb -- if you're not rising, you are slipping down the rungs, my friend.

I'm just the kind of person who seems designed, probably by nature, to try to make a difference.

I do try to be of some use in the world. I sometimes do volunteer work with kids, and manage to help some people a little, but really making a significant difference can be hard.

As far as I know Misha wrote the first cyberpunk poetry.

Innocence could be considered a discrete state of mind.

I'm disturbed when people let superstition, magical thinking, extreme conspiracy theories and so on blur their minds.
